that's because there is a very high demand of silver these days and by going to the open market to buy silver they would have to pay premiums. if they chose to pay the premiums the price would run up.. that's why they had to cancel. they obviously held the price down, but not the demand. eventually the price will catch up to the demand. but in all actuality, a small fry like myself can't get my hands on physical silver for $26 an ounce. i would have to pay about $34 if i was able to get a fair deal... the small dealers are holding back now too, knowing that price is going up.
